freed itself in this State from side issues,
such as woman suffrage, and has adopted

ly the giant evil, Just as all good men be-
lieve that it ought to be grappled. In view
of these and other considerations, and

courts, jails, poor-houses, care of the in
sane, and things like that. The land you
own pays the bulk of the county taxes;
besides that, you are often taken from your
work at the busiest season of the year to
sit on grand or petit juries, two, three or
four weeks at a time, when every days abb
! sence foots up a dead loss to you.
| What do these courts do? Examine the
docket of any county where liquor is sold,
and see if whisky is not at the bottom of
fully one-half the criminal cases. \ man
goes into licensed saloon, gets drunk,
comes out a raving lunatic, murders anoth-
er man, and you try, convict and hang
him, or put him i'll prison for life. Such a
case in my own county lately cost in court
expenses $4,000 The county, which
means mainly the farmers footed the bill
while the city pocketed the thousand-dol-
lar fee for the licen Sc, which allowed the
liquor that did the deed to be sold.
Again. we have just built $4,000 Jail,
and it is pretty well filled with the fruits OF
the saloon. You paid larger proportion
of the $4,000 than the city did; it affords
Accommodations" to very few of your
cense fee paid by the saloons that had the
biggest share in filing it. The poor house
and farm are just outside the city limits,
and you feel fattered when the State au-
thorties report it the best-kept institution
of the kind in the State. Well you may,
for you are back Of that institution, SO far
as money goes; for the taxes you pay, in
large measure, sustain it. But its physi-
clan, himself drinking man, not tenn
perance fanatic, reports, again and again
and again, to your Supervisors that at
least three fourths of the inmates come
there through the drinking habit, either in
themselves or others. AS though to sub
stantiate his opinion, counties where no
liquor is obtainable show few inmates in
their poor-houses, and their jails often
stand empty.
The case in q nutshell is this: If there is
any good coming from license-which we
deny-the city gets it, while for all the mis-
heaviest part of the bills.
Infinitely beyond any money considera-
ton are the danger-pits that the licensed
saloons of the town dig for the unwary feet
Of your boys. From lack of familiarity
with their enticements, farmers boys are
more liable 10 fall victims to the saloons,
when brought under their influence, than
city boys are. When municipalities have
power TO grant dram shop licenses, you
have no power to hinder the city's digging
pitfalls for your boys. State and national
prohibition, enforced by party pledged to
sustain it, is the only thing that can relieve
the farmer from unjust taxation to sustain
the fruits of the liquor traffic or make our
country q safe place for his boys and girls
to grow up in.-lIary Allen West.

y
dear boy, that there are men in this
world who have plenty of money, but
who are yet so utterly friendless-that
is in the possession Of true friends
that they would give almost to the ut
termost farthing of their wealth could
they, by so doing, buy the friendship,
the esteem even, of those whose friend
ship and goodwill is worth having.
Money is a great power in the world,
George, but there are some things so
precious that even money cannot buy
them. Among these are virtue, hon
esty, love, and clear conscience.
Money can supply all a mans physi-
cal wants; it can indeed go far toward
catering to his intellectual enjoyment,
toward his comfort and betterment in
a thousand ways; but there are some
longings of the heart, the souls higher
and better aspirations, that money can
not crafty. The milliona re standing
by the coffin containing the clay of a
darling son, is no richer, his money
availeth no more against the King of
Terrors than do the rags of the pauper
All his wealth cannot exempt him or
his from the common lot of humanity T;
it may buy him finer coffin, grander
tomb, but, after all, his flesh is food
for the worms, and the succeeding gen.
Grafton forget that such one ever
lived or had being on the face of the
earth.
The man who invests his money in
trying to alleviate the sut1erings of his
poorer and more unfortunate fellow
creatures; who gives bread to the hun
cry, roof to the homeless, and cloth
ing to the naked, gets far greater in
terest than does the close-fsted old
miser who loans his thousands on rail
road stock, or on first mortgages on the
best real estate. The true philanthro-
pist, the practical helper, is, after all,
the happiest Of men. When great
man dies now, the first question usual
ly asked is, "What did he do for hui
manity?" If the answer is Nothing"
then the world doesn't take the trouble
to inquire any further into his record.
That answer tells the story. He lived
for himself; he took no interest, be-
You'd q selfish one, in the world, and
humanity cannot, therefore, afford to
bother with him. On the other hand,
had the man, though penniless, been
known as q friend to his fellows, his
memory liveth forever, and little chill
dren are taught to lisp his name in
loving accents. True friendship is the
crown of life. Bear this in mind, my
dear boy, and never sink the noblest
things of life to the mere paltry value
by which some meas re all things, that
is, dollars and cents. Yours, in sincere
friendship, UNCLE SAM.

Who, reading between the lines, could
fail to picture the happiness of the houses
of McFadden and MCGEE? Such rivers of
whisky. such oceans of beer, must surely
have engendered a dreamy content not I'M
like that of the lotus eaters. And if, per-
chance, at times an excess of whisky sowed
discord between The houses Of McFadden
and MCGEE, wou not the beer, like the
white winged Angel of Peace, come, bring
ing balm upon its foaming waves? 1t is,
ical must be the man who could mar its
beauty with thoughts of hurting wash
boards or parabolic boot jacks. A dreamy
alcoholic languor must have continually
wrapt the members of both families-with
the possible exception of the goat. But.
alas We cannot all be happy. Were we
not McGee, we would be McFadden; were
we not McFadden, We would be MCGEE.

The Farmer and the Saloon.

The great argument used for licensing
the saloons is that revenue is secured to
lessen taxation; license money will build
sidewalks, support schools and do many
other things which otherwise would have
to be paid for directly out of the pockets
of the Taxpayers. Prof. Foster and DIR.
Herrick johnson have in preceding "Time-
ly Talks" SO we'll shown The fallacy of this
claim, we spend no time on it. There is
another phase of the question to which We
wish to call the especial attention of GU,
farmer friends. 1t is this: license money
does not decrease your taxes one cent, but
the saloons do increase your taxes enor-
mously. You are not taxed to build side
walks, light the streets, or do any of the
things it is claimed the license money does
for the town. But you are taxed, and that
right heavily, to pay the county's bills TO,

SAN FRANCISCO is soon to have its
Statue of Liberty. 1t is not of such
grand proportions as the Bartholdi
statue on Liberty Island, but it is to
shed its light from height of 740 feet.
It is to stand on Mount Olympus,
which is about 700 feet above the water,
the statue itself, including the pedestal,
being about forty feet in height. A
two-inch gas pipe passes up the entire
height of the pedestal at the center to
the base of the figure, and through it
the electric wires will be passed, MAX
ing their exit at one side of the figure,
passing thence along the folds Of the
robe up to the arm holding the torch.
The light, which it is expected will be
supplied by the city, will be 10000
candle power, and will illuminate the
entire Golden Gate Park, as we'll as
being visible from the bay, a splendid
view of which is commanded from the
summit of the mount. 1t is the work

that it should represent light triumph
Ing over darkness, liberty over tyranny
and despotism. 1t was exhibited at an
exhibition in Antwerp, and attracted
much attention on account of the vigor
with which the artist had treated his
subject. Adolph Sutro saw the figure
there after having read much favorable
criticism of it in the press, and then
the idea struck him that it might be an
establishment to the entire San Fran
cisco peninsula.

Phil ARMOUR is one of the hardest

is almost the first at his office in the
morning, and works almostunceasipgly
until evening, and recreation from his
daily duties is thing unknown to him.
His son Allison is veritable chip of
the old block. He inherits the energy,
push, and activity which have given
his father the great business success he
has attained, and is credited with being
in commercial matters as shrewd at a
bargain as the head of the family.
When he was 81 years of age his father
gave him the neat little sum Of 81 ,00O,-
600 in cash and an interest in the bust
ness of Armour & Co., and short time
after sent him to New York i'll charge
of the Eastern interests of the firm. He
is not by any means an unworldlv char

ingly popular among the wide-awake
men who make up the best portion of
New York society.
